Olisa4all: Apparently, you've not flown on an airplane before. Otherwise, you would’ve heard something like, ‘This is your Captain (place name) speaking’ over the tannoy systems on scheduled flights (normally followed by a delay announcement). So a pilot being called a captain is no big deal. But to further enlighten you.. What is the difference between a pilot and a Captain? A pilot is a job description, and does not imply any qualification or rank. Professional pilots have completed either a Commercial Pilot’s Licence (CPL) or a Air Transport Pilot’s Licence (ATPL). This differentiates them from amateur pilots who have a Private Pilot’s Licence (PPL). An aircraft must always have a nominated pilot who is in overall charge of the aircraft, this pilot is the Captain. See? A newly qualified airline or private jet pilot is allocated the rank of “First Officer” then later “Senior First Officer” before they take a “Command Course” after which they can become a Captain. Got that? |

sugah: Chinyere Kalu flies aeroplanes; and, she's been flying aeroplanes for over 35 years now! See: http://www.thisdaylive.com/articles/i-feel-good-flying-for-35-years-says-captain-kalu/162050/ |

Drone007: Ok....so if you know she flies airplanes (and im assuming that you have spent your time online wisely by asking our dear friend Google about the aircraft types), why are you contesting AB is the first female nigerian helicopter captain? From your post above i can confidently conclude you need someone to sit with you and explain the intricacies of aviation 1 Like |

Mrbigman1: Uhmmmm so when there are two 'black' people in the cockpit during a flight, who flies the aircraft? Your village witches? 2 Likes |

sugah: Lmao, no, na ur own village. Am just talking from experience dear, u barely see blacks dia, it's a British firm and u barely see black, wen dey re dia, dey re always doing paperwork. Ok, I really wish her well. I am talking from experience and not hear say |
Re: Meet Nigeria's First Female Helicopter Captain [pictured] by Olisa4all: 7:42am On Feb 23, 2015 |
Mrbigman1: Sir, its pretty much obvious you're talking from hear say, not experience. P.S "we" are speaking authoritatively. |

Mrbigman1: Its an American company and although the ratio of foreigners to locals isnt at par, there is an increase in local pilots in the company and in Nigeria. Im guessing your experience was 1 flight and thats enough to make conclusions and some albeit ignorant observations.... Check google and you'll know that helicopters Vibrate. No she isn't the greatest, she is the FIRST FEMALE in the HELICOPTER industry in Nigeria to achieve this feat. Is that too hard to understand? P.s. On a 2crew flight, 1 person flies while the other does radios and paperwork....irrespective of the colour of their skin or gender |

sugah: Oga/madam, Am black and not a racist, if u feel I write those to down grade my people den u got me wrong. Am a regular traveler. The Bristow helipad I use often and I travel from all part of the country to various locations. Am a service hand and I travel from eket, agip base in ph or naval base or lagos. I see some few black or Nigerians dia but I still maintain that I wish her well. But they need to build dia confidence, it's actually auto pilot always and I ve seen some cheerful guys giving them a chance to do the work while dey exchange paper. I watch dem and am even glade Nigerians re given a chance to par take. Am not a racist Please take note. |

Mrbigman1: So you've gone from doing only paperwork to autopilot only? Please be consistent with your self deceit. You claim you are not racist (i beg to differ) but you do have a 'blackman mentality '. You think you have no self worth...what a 'whiteman' can do, a blackman cant possibly do it.. You say they should build their confidence..... Why do you think they don't have confidence? Cos they fly with autopilot? All pilots fly autopilot for long flights, it reduces the workload. If you are not busy praying during your next flight, you'd observe takeoffs and landings are flown by the pilot. P.s. 95% of the Nigerians you see have university degrees, the reverse is the case for the foreigners. 1 Like |
